I'm not sure what you mean by *PrintIt:*. If you mean type 'Hello World' in the Playground and just *Print it*, that's not really a "program." Sean P. DeNigris wrote

To me the Hello World in Smalltalk was always just writing: 'Hello world'
+1. While putting it in a class shows a few more of the system's features, it also makes it seem more complex than other languages, when that's not really true. Why not just PrintIt: 'Hello world'? If it seems important to show classes, maybe start with PrintIt: 'Hello world' and step-by-step build through `Transcript show: 'Hello world'` to the class-based solution.
